How Heaven Interfered.

Sir Francis Hastings Doyle put the follow
ing good story into his lately published book
of "reminiscences: James Allan Park was a
worthy old Judge, believer in special provi-
dences and extremely eccentric. He was in
the habit of talking aloud to himself without
knowing it. In one case that came before
him the prisoner was accused of stealing
some fagots, and Park, on the bench, was
heard to mutter something to this effect
that he did not quite see his way to verdict,
one fagot being as like another fagot as one
egg is like another egg. The quick-eared
barrister retained for the defense caught
these murmurings from above, and instantly
made use of them. Now, witness, he cried
out, you swear to those fagots; how dare
you do such thing. Is not one fagot as like
another fagot as one egg is like another eggF
Immediately the judge, who though good
man, had certainly no claim to be an angel,
rushed in without any proper apprehensions
Stop the case, he shouted, stop il at once;
the coincidence is quite miraculous. i VOW
to God the very same thought in the very
same words passed through my mind only a
few seconds ago Heaven has interfered to
shield an innocent man. Gentlemen of the
jury you will acquit the prisoner. Chicago
Herald.

Painting Still Life,

used to know a Frenchman who boasted
that be could make money go further than
any one alive He was a dexterous painter
Of still life, and one of his favorite subjects
was a sack of guineas and package of bank
notes lying on desk with an account book
and the trappings of cashiers desk. He
painted this picture over and over again, and
got high prices for every replica he made.
The original money had been loaned to him
by the picture dealer for whom he had
painted the first picture. Now he has enough
OF his own to make studies from.
We have In New York very similar
genius He is also painter of still life, and
his microscopically accurate transcription of
IS greenback, supposed to be mucilaged to
an ebony panel, has been decided by the gov
ernment to come under the head of a danger
Gus counterfeit He makes his money go
farther than my Gallo friend 1 fancy, for
he can sell one of his s5 bills for $500, while
it took some thousands of pounds of the
Frenchman's manufacture to command as
much.
The painting Of still life takes some curious
turns, by the way Portraits of men and
beasts are common enough Last week a
musical enthusiast brought to painter of
nv acquaintance commission to paint him
a picture which should include portrait of
his pet Stradivarius The fine old fiddle is
now in progress of pictorial immortalization,
as the center of composition which includes
a music book, rose in glass and a tankard
of Rhine ewine.--Alfred Trumble in New York
